SN 9001

Clearing the Way to a Reliable Auditor for Your SN 9001 Snow and Ice Management Certification.

In 2012, Jeanette Preston, president of SQA, assisted executive director of ASCA, Kevin Gilbride, in developing the SN 9001 standard. Working jointly with the standards committee, they helped steer the development process while implementing and improving the quality management system.

The Snow and Ice Management Industry is interested in pursuing SN 9001 certification for a myriad of reasons. The value derived from SN 9001 certification comes from the focus on processes and procedures. Adherence to these processes and procedures of the quality management system will result in:

potentially reduced insurance premiums

reduced waste involved with slip-and-fall litigation

increased end-user safety and satisfaction

enhanced supplier-customer satisfaction

more efficient use of labor

What Is SN 9001?

SN 9001 is based on the fundamentals and principals of ISO 9001, but tailored for the commercial snow and ice management industry. SN 9001 institutes guidelines for a quality management system that not only limits exposure to slip-and-fall litigation, but focuses on end customer satisfaction, as well as quality services delivered.

SN 9001 implements both a pre-season inspection and an in-event assessment to ensure conformity to the standard. Proper implementation of SN 9001 will most certainly result in meeting and exceeding customer expectations and adding value to your customer and business.
